"Apart from the blistering '21st Century,' the standout tracks are mostly notable for the kind of ensemble thrust that distinguishes 'A Gozar,' with its now open, now muted brass, or the melodic allure evident on the quartet arrangement of 'Peaceful,' the album's reflective interlude.… Soulfully arranged to showcase Sandoval's mastery of the fluegelhorn, 'Arranca de Nuevo' offers not only a welcome twist but also a strong emotional component."—Washington Post
